Production facility

To perform experimental studies with the required accuracy at our institute, precision manufacturing of the corresponding test rig and measurement components is required. Therefore, nearly all components are manufactured and assembled in the institute’s mechanical workshop. The workshop staff actually consists of 11 employees.

For stock-removing production the institute owns different numerically controlled manufacturing machines and equipment to control manufacturing results. Three numerically controlled boring and milling machines with rotary table are available for milling. Turned parts are produced with two numerically controlled as well as four conventional lathes. Furthermore, among others a CNC controlled round grinding, a surface grinding as well as a sinking EDM machine are available at IFAS.
